SOD 2000 Plus Solaray, 60 capsules, Secom Combination of antioxidant factors that help reduce oxidative stress. Properties: - contains a complex of Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), Glutathione Peroxidase and Catalase, 400mg/capsule - increased efficiency through the innovative association of antioxidant enzymes, herbal extracts, calcium (d-glucarate) and ellagic acid - enterically protected capsules that ensure absorption in the small intestine Effects and benefits: The antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD) was discovered by Dr. McCord and Professor Irwing Fridovich in 1969. Superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase and catalase are endogenous antioxidant enzymes (produced by the human body) that protect DNA and cell membranes. against the action of free radicals (O2-, HO and H2O2). Superoxide dismutase catalyzes the reduction of the superoxide anion (O2-), one of the most reactive oxygen species, to the less reactive hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Hydrogen peroxide is converted by catalase and glutathione peroxidase to water (H2O) which can be easily eliminated. - reducing oxidative stress (imbalance between reactive oxygen species and the bodys antioxidant capacity) that affects the structure and functions of all organs - detoxification of the body: supporting the second phase of liver detoxification through the glucuronidation effect of calcium (d-glucarate) - maintenance of normal cell division: reduction of cellular and mitochondrial DNA changes caused by free radicals - reduction of tissue degradation caused by aging Composition (Per 1 capsule): Superoxide Dismutase Complex 400 mg (SOD) (2000 units McCord Fridovich, Glutathione Peroxidase), Catalase Blend: 70 mg Rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis) (leaf) Green tea (Camellia sinensis) (leaf extract) Calcium (d-glucarate) Ellagic acid Grapes (Vitis vinifera) (seed extract) Administration method: 1 capsule 1-3 times/day at least 1 hour before meals or as recommended by the specialist consultant.
